You can display or hide
dynamic and annotational constraints within a drawing.
Display or Hide Dynamic
Constraints
You
can hide all dynamic constraints to reduce clutter when you want
to work with geometric constraints only, or when you need to continue
other work in the drawing. You can turn on their display when needed
from the ribbon or with the DCDISPLAY command.
By default, if you select
an object associated with a hidden dynamic constraint, all dynamic
constraints associated with that object are temporarily displayed.
You can display or hide
the dynamic constraints for all objects or for a selection set.
Display or Hide Annotational
Constraints
You control
the display of annotational constraints as you would with dimension
objects—you assign them to a layer and turn the layer on or off as
needed. You can also specify object properties for annotational
constraints such as dimension style, color, and lineweight.
To display or hide dynamic
dimensional constraints
- Click Parametric tab
Dimensional
panel Show/Hide.
- Select the constrained objects.
- Press Enter.
- Select one of following:
- Show. Displays
the dimensional constraints.
- Hide. Hides
the dimensional constraints.
CommandsDCDISPLAY
Displays or hides the
dynamic constraints associated with a selection set of objects.
DELCONSTRAINT
Removes all geometric
and dimensional constraints from a selection set of objects.
DIMCONSTRAINT
Applies dimensional
constraints to selected objects or points on objects, or converts
associative dimensions to dimensional constraints.
LIST
Displays property data
for selected objects.
PARAMETERS
Controls the associative
parameters used in the drawing.
-PARAMETERS
Controls the associative
parameters used in the drawing.
PARAMETERSCLOSE
Closes the Parameters
Manager palette.
TEXTEDIT
Edits a dimensional
constraint, dimension, or text object.
System VariablesCONSTRAINTNAMEFORMAT
Controls the text format
for dimensional constraints.
CONSTRAINTRELAX
Indicates whether constraints
are enforced or relaxed when editing an object.
CONSTRAINTSOLVEMODE
Controls constraint
behavior when applying or editing constraints.
DIMCONSTRAINTICON
Displays the lock icon
next to the text for dimensional constraints.
DYNCONSTRAINTMODE
Displays hidden dimensional
constraints when constrained objects are selected.
PARAMETERCOPYMODE
Controls how constraints
and referenced user parameters are handled when constrained objects
are copied between drawings, Model space and layouts, and block
definitions.
PARAMETERSSTATUS
Indicates whether the
Parameters Manager is displayed or hidden.
